Seth came into my life when he was 6 yrs old, and I did not know then that I was being blessed with a son. Our interest, thoughts and love, became one, We could not have loved Each other more. Vic Porter July 3,2004
Unanswered Questions What could I have done On that dreadful ,fateful night, To convince you that life's victories Were worth every minute of the fight?
What could I have said? What words of wisdom had I to impart That would perhaps have mended Your badly broken heart?
Could I have convinced you That life could be gentle,and be kind? Could I have shifted the direction Of the windmills of your mind?
These questions remain unanswered, And lives are forever altered By one frozen moment in time When you stumbled and you faltered!
All the love I had for you Was not enough,it seems, To stop the silence of the night from breaking With the "shot" that shattered dreams!
Though you chose to leave this earth, Your soul did not depart. For a peice of you remains forever Nestled in the corner of my heart. 1998 Sherri Johnson I love you Seth....Mom
A Mother's Love
On a day I will forever remember A day so tragic it cut me like a sword that's the day you left to live with Jesus Christ our Lord the love and grief I carry with me never goes away I often look at pictures of you right by my side wondering why you did this & how I would survive my heart aches with misery since the day that I lost you my mind doesn't want to admit of what happened that day I wish it was just a dream & that it would go away now I know it isn't a dream but my eyes still fill with tears I love you and miss you each & every day of the year I only wish that you had NEVER made that mistake so MY SON I'll closefor now remember what I say for in my heart is a MOTHERS LOVE that NO ONE can takeaway.

Along with numerous friends from Muscle Shoals High School & Wilson High School. Seth would call these his "Buddies"!
Seth was preceded in death by his brother, Brandon Lee Montgomery in October 1983. His maternal grandfather, Sonny Lawson, also preceded him in death.
Seth's grandmother Artie Porter went to Heaven 8 weeks following Seth. Also Patti, Vic & Seth's dog Molly whom Seth loved dearly and she loved him just as much, also departed 4 months to the day following Seth. I think she missed him too much, so she is with Seth again.

Tributes Paid To Our Seth
On May 24, 2005, Seth's family, buddies, and teachers gathered at Muscle Shoals High School for a special ceremony in memory of Seth. A beautiful bench has been permanantly set in front of the high school for all to see. On top of the bench holds a plaque that says "In memory of Seth Montgomery" "Gone from this world but in our hearts forever." The bench was placed there by his buddies. Mrs. Allman, Mr. Charles Hardy, Mr. Noah, Nicole Moody, Bethany Oliver, & Yvonne Moody all said or wrote little pieces that day. Mr. Riner, the art teacher at the school created a wonderful painting of Seth that will be placed in the school for all to see.
His Friends
If you click on the song link to the right you'll be hearing the song "FreeBird" by Lynard Skynard. Seth was a big fan of Lynard Skynard. The song was also played at his funeral service. When the family was exiting the chapel, Seth's friends were heard singing the chorus. Soon after that, they all piled into the back of a 4X4 Truck to the cemetary. I know Seth loved that....
